Reseña del libro "Across the Piave, 1917-1919: A Personal Account of the British Forces in Italy (en Inglés)"
An eyewitness account of the forgotten Italian front in World War One. Perfect for fans of Alvin York, Matthew Rozell and Barbara Tuchman. After having survived the Somme and Passchendaele in the muddy fields of northern France and Belgium during 1916 and 1917 Norman Gladden and the 11th Battalion Northumberland Fusiliers were sent south to bolster Italian defences against Austro-German forces. Before Gladden arrived on this front the Italians had been crushingly defeated at the Battle of Caporetto meaning that Britain's allies were in urgent need for reinforcements on the Grappa-Piave line. Over the course of the final year of the war, Gladden and his fellow soldiers held back Austrian offenses before contributing to Lord Cavan's forcing of the Piave in October 1918, the first and most important phase in a series of operations which would culminate in the complete collapse of the Austria-Hungarian Empire. Through Across the Piave Gladden charts his experiences of what this Italian front was like and reveals how it contrasted to his previous experiences at the Somme and Ypres. 'excellent account' Military Affairs Across the Piave is a vital book for all interested in the history of the First World War as it uncovers an infantry soldier's viewpoint of the often-forgotten Italian front. This book is the third part of Norman Gladden's World War One trilogy, Full Pack - A Private's War, preceded by The Somme, 1916 and Ypres, 1917. A portion of the revenue from every sale of each book in this trilogy goes to The National Trust.
